New analysis of larger dataset showed that aducanumab reduced clinical decline in patients with early Alzheimer’s disease as measured by the pre-specified primary and secondary endpoints

Based on discussions with the FDA, the Company plans to submit a Biologics License Application in early 2020

Biogen aims to offer aducanumab to eligible patients previously enrolled in clinical studies

The positive results of this new analysis were driven primarily by greater exposure to high dose aducanumab in the larger dataset as compared to data available at the time of the futility analysis
